Selling Power

Just over 20 years ago the deregulation train rolled across this nation. We deregulated the utilities, suffering through the Enrons to arrive at the glorious utopia of today.

Today:

Now the sellers of electricity boast that they offer one rate so you have certainty, confidence, straitforward, easily understood. No complicated bills. Almost the way it was before deregulation.

Uncertainty. Argument

To solve the problem reduce uncertainty of future changes to tax. So goes the argument for keeping the “bush tax cut.” Yet the uncertainty is caused by the discussion to end the cut. Most small businesses that use a personal income tax to file under have known the tax cut was temporary. Any uncertainty, any false or hesitant hope, has come because of the hope to change the deadline to the law. They must know that tax rates are varied every few years. They must know this if they are smart enough to be the leaders of the capital pack.
